The Fedora just turned back around because of the Earthquake in China.

Just checked and my MINI is loaded up and ready for her cruise! And I think that we'll start taking delivery about a week after fedora lands, so about the 30-31. That's my guess.

That would be perfect timing for me. Sold my loaded Chevy SSR and am driving it up to the new owner in Northern Va. over the memorial day weekend! Now we will have two minis in the garage!

HOw did you find out the car was loaded up? Please post the link/links for doing that. Thanks, Ed

That would be perfect timing for me too since the 30th is when I have to hand in my current lease. You can tell that the car is loaded right on the WW site. Just do what you normally do by entering the VIN and under status it'll say that it was loaded onto the vessel . And I just checked and Fedora has not reported to sailwx yet . Hopefully soon cuz I wanna see where she is at.

Mine WAS on the fedora exactly 1 month ago. Now I'm motoring! It's interesting how fast the ships make a complete round trip.

BTW: last month the Fedora's NY arrival was moved up by a day while at sea. It actually arrived a day earlier than scheduled. Anyway, hold on, it won't be long now. And it is worth the wait!

It is quite interesting, and I hope that Fedora can be speedy like last month (crosses fingers). And yes it isn't that far away but the days seem to slow down the closer the delivery date gets

I keep checking the sailwx site and from it seems, they don't have any record of Fedora... Has anyone else on this boat been able to track her down. She should be somewhere between England and NYC.

I requested info. in an email to the shipping company and they got back to me 2 days later and said the Fedora would be in NY on May 23rd and after that, they said they did not know how long it would take to get to the dealer. Some say it only takes a few days and others longer for whatever reason. Relax, if it's on the Fedora, however long it is, it most likely won't take too much more time. Go in the garden and smell the roses, enjoy whatever hobbies you have and next thing you know it will be here.

Ah yes, but the 23rd is a whole week away! I'm already losing my mind waiting for my MINI..I've even had dreams about picking her up only to wake up and be disappointed . But it can't be that much longer to wait. If only it wasn't raining so much the past week, then I could've done more to preoccupy my OCD.
